In a previous existence, Phast Phreddie was the editor and founder of BACK DOOR MAN magazine, an early example of Rock’n’Roll fanzines, that existed from 1975 to 1978. Durng the late seventies, Phast was on the Hollywood punk rock scene and wrote for Slash Magazine, briefly managed The Zeros and was resident DJ at several popular nightclubs, including Madame Wong’s West, the Starwood and the Cathay de Grande.
During the eighties, he led his own band, Phast Phreddie & Thee Precisions, held a DJ residency at the Club Lingerie in Hollywood, worked for the Rhino Record Store and was tour manager for Peter Case and Redd Kross.

This Boogaloo Bag is here to promote Phast Phreddie’s DJ activities and to discuss several other concerns he may have–mostly dealing with all sorts of reet music and swingin’ records.
